Galeria Krakowska shopping center closure

Overview

On October 21, 2026, an electrical switchgear failure caused a fire in a technical area near the parking lot at Galeria Krakowska in Krakow. While firefighters extinguished the fire and no injuries were reported, the incident necessitated an evacuation and the closure of commercial sections and internal parking lots.

By October 24, the shopping center remained closed as management extended the shutdown to allow specialists to conduct detailed inspections of the main electrical switchboard. While the commercial areas remain inaccessible, the Hala Europejska section connecting to Pawia Street, the underground pedestrian passage to the Krakow Main Railway Station, and the external parking lot above the railway platforms have remained open.
